There is a bug epoll_reacor the version Release 1.45.0 In the file epoll_reactor.hpp, function epoll_reacor::run, line 369.

void* ptr = events[i].data.ptr; ... descriptor_state* descriptor_data = static_cast<descriptor_state*>(ptr); mutex::scoped_lock descriptor_lock(descriptor_data->mutex_);

And the file epoll_reactor.hpp, function epoll_reacor::close_descriptor, line 256.

registered_descriptors_.erase(descriptor);

The ptr ( void* ptr = events[i].data.ptr) may been free in the epoll_reacor::close_descriptor.

status new → closed
resolution → invalid

I assume you mean asio 1.4.5 / boost 1.43. The line:

    registered_descriptors_.erase(descriptor);

does not free the memory. The node is placed on a free-list and is not deleted until the io_service is destroyed.
